Problem to deploy application using QWebEngine to Windows 10

[odelaune]

Hello,
I am learning how to deploy an application on Windows.

Here is what I have done so far:

• I have compiled my application in release mode usingQtCreator. An .exe file was created
• I've created a new directory and moved the .exe file into it
• I run windeployqt.exe with the path to my .exe file as argument
• I try to run my application by double-clicking on the .exe file
• My application starts but there is a part of it that uses QWebEngine. This part of the application is not working because when I try to use it, I getan error popup that says:

qtwebengineprocess.exe - Application Error. The application failed to initialize properly (0xXXXXXXXX). Click OK to terminate the application.

Do you have any idea how to solve this problem?

I found the origin of the problem.
It is because I run Windows 10 through a virtual machine. The directory where I placed my .exe file was located on a network drive...

If I move this directory to a local drive, the error disappears.

Try dependency walker, maybe there some missing libs
